verse 1
A
Cheat'n is a thing that starts when you bring two lonely
A7 D E
people face to face with a brand new kiss. She blames him and
he blames her and neither one is really quite sure which
E7 A D
way it is. And all of the time in the back of their mind
E A
they know they're gonna have to lie about where they been.
E
Cheat'n is a thing that takes a little ring and breaks it
A E
into pieces that'll never go together again.
verse 2
A
Cheat'n is a part of love in the start when true love isn't
A7 D E
what lovers are look'n for. A stranger here, a stranger there
E7 A
You swear every time that you'll never go back for more.
D
And lying at night when you're hold'n them tight, there's
E A
something that a cheaters heart is bound to learn.
E
Cheat'n is a thing that's guaranteed to bring two unhappy
E7 A
people to the point of no return.
E Bm E A
verse 3
D
And the worse that cheat'n gets is sad little kids hanging
E A
in the middle while mommy and daddy choose.
E
Cheat'n is a game where nobody wins and the ones that aren't
A
big enough to play are the ones who loose.
E
